    Well that would be against the 1st amendment. Not only are these shitheads running towards the slippery slope, they’re already sliding down the mountain and dragging us all along with them in the name of staying on top and keeping their money. They will certainly not be bound by such laws, and there will just be more and more of this “haves v havenots” bullshit. This shit needs to be shut the fuck down. Now.

      The shitheads have already threatened to use force against their allies in NATO and applied amnesty to participants in the coup attempt, so… Nothing is surprising anymore.

    I think the tech bros are simply terrified of what China is about to unleash on the US and the world by them bringing down their great firewall this year.

        Yes, Xi made an announcement last week it will start off in one of the major cities with full removal in a few months. Chinese citizens will be able to sign up on all ‘western’ social media. The US opening Pandora’s box with the TikTok ban has let the Genie out of the bottle. I suspect other tech to come out of China will make the US look like its living in the mid 1800s

    China is an entire economy built on intellectual property thievery and slave labor. The whole thing, that’s their advantage, and source of gdp which perpetuates the CCP’s stranglehold on 1.4 Billion people . Theft and slavery. The Chinese CCP can fuck off into the sun.

      To be fair, espionage is a common thing throught history. This is nothing really morally wrong with copying from other countries.

      By your definition, the US technically “stole” the atomic bomb from the nazis by “stealing” German scientists. I mean like… who cares.

      Your argument should focus more on what the implications of what it means for China to become more powerful, not the “intellectual property” aspect. Like what jurisdiction? The powerless UN? Is it “intellectual property” if we find a alien spacecraft and didn’t ask the aliens for permission to reverse engineer it?
